Thought I’d let you know how Tess is doing. I was out in SD last week and she did great. We got 39 birds between the four of us. Tess has a great nose, quarters beautifully, and has unbelievable enthusiasm and stamina. She needs to learn about barb wire fences though. She needed several stitches on a cut. There were lots of birds but they were getting a bit wild this time of the season.

Tess is a great dog and is finally out of the puppy phase of chewing everything in sight – including wallpaper. There were some puppy days of destruction when I was ready to give her back to you – ha! She is great with the grandkids – never have to worry about her ever biting or nipping anyone. Ralph and his friends that go hunting, say she is the best hunting dog they have ever seen. She is quick and quarters without having any hunting training. She loves to hunt. All is well here and glad to hear your family is doing well too.
